Liverpool switch information: Everton need Anfield star, Isak swap deal and Kerkez confidence
Liverpool look likely to be heading for a summer of huge transition in the transfer window with exciting incomings linked with a move to Anfield and a surprising departure
Liverpool are set for a busy summer transfer window amid the uncertainty of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah’s futures.
Whether or not Liverpool lose three of their most influential players remains to be seen, but Arne Slot will be eager to add to his ranks regardless. And the wheels already appear to be set in motion for a new striker and defender signing.
Despite looking strong front runners in the Premier League, Liverpool are far from the finished article under Slot and the Dutchman is likely heading for a busy summer of ins and outs at Anfield.
Here, the Daily Star Sport looks at the latest Liverpool transfer news.
Ben Doak
Scotland sensation Ben Doak could become the first Liverpool player to cross the city divide and join Everton since 1992 with David Moyes interested in signing the winger.
The 19-year-old has been linked with Premier League clubs after impressing on loan in the Championship with Middlesbrough this season. And according to The Scottish Sun, Moyes wants to add Doak to his squad next season.
It remains to be seen whether Liverpool would do business with the Toffees, but Doak could put pressure on the move with him said to have his heart set on playing regularly again next season.
Alexander Isak
Liverpool could be set to make a stunning swap deal with Newcastle in a bid to sign Alexander Isak, 25. The Swede has been in incredible form this season and has become one of the most sought-after strikers in world football.
According to GIVEMESPORT, Newcastle want Diogo Jota and Harvey Elliott included in any Isak swap deal instead of Darwin Nunez. The Carabao Cup winners are said to reject any attempts for the Reds to use the Uruguayan as a makeweight in an offer for Isak.
Eddie Howe is said to be keen on Jota and Elliott, which opens the door to the duo possibly being mentioned in negotiations. However, Newcastle remain intent on retaining Isak in the summer.
Milos Kerkez
Bournemouth left-back Milos Kerkez, 21, has been a name regularly linked with Liverpool this season and the Reds believe they have won the battle to sign the £50million-rated defender.
Kerkez has enjoyed a brilliant season with the Cherries and has caught Arne Slot’s eye as a potential long-term successor to Andy Robertson. And according to The Sun, Kerkez favours a move to Anfield.
The left-back is under contract until 2028 but Bournemouth will reportedly do business at the right price after the Hungarian made clear his desire to take the next step in his career.
